Social Cooperative

Social cooperatives are a powerful model for delivering high-quality, community-driven care while ensuring fair wages and democratic governance. Around the world, they have successfully addressed gaps in childcare, elder care, and disability services. RMEOC is leading efforts to bring this model to the U.S. through policy advocacy, education, and hands-on support. Join us in building a better future for care work and economic democracy.
